Actually its Giovanna Wall whom I believe who wrote the post, but very good as well.
Good point John ... thanks for clarifying.
"By fixing the above issues, they may very well rank for the remaining 11 keywords."Wikipedia has no interest in ranking for those terms.
Why would wikipedia rank for those terms? No one is going to wikipedia to get information on "mortgage rates", "insurance quotes" or "loan consolidation". These are commercial terms. Its the same reason why wikipedia ranks third for the term "aruba", but does not rank for the term "book a trip to aruba" (at least not in the top 50).
I think youll need to give it a few more months yet. They only rank 6th on my browser right now :)

In fact, TheMadHat posted a similar post a couple months backhttp://www.themadhat.com/search-engines/wikipedia-has-the-answer/and Wikipedia dominates Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft alike.
thanks
